Thanks for another walk Paul. It’s nice to see London out being normal and cool.

[@KentishLassie]

This was a most enjoyable walk. So nice to see people out and about again. I missed your London walks.

[@ИринаЛаптий]

День клонится к закату.Хорошо в это время прогуляться вдоль реки и увидеть,как садится солнце...Великолепная прогулка!Спасибо!❤

[@pallavimehra6979]

Your videos are so real!! I feel transported to th London streets! Thanks for your efforts.

[@stellamaris9933]

I've been to London a few times. There's so much still to see....hoping to be back again someday. You are very efficient - putting down the details of the camera you use, captioning all of the landmarks you cover (this is much appreciated), setting up your store, and going out there doing this every week. You are working hard and doing a great job at it! Nice tour today! Looking forward to the next! Cheers! 👍👍👍 (Maybe more commentary subtitles - like personal observations - would add more charm to the vids. Just a thought. The background conversations that are caught in the audio are interesting. 😉)

[@WatchedWalker]

Thank you Stella, really appreciate your kind words! Ideally I would love to put more time into the subtitles (which I've done on a few videos), though each video takes so long as it is, I don't always get the time. I also need to weigh it up against how many viewers use the subtitles too, to see if it's the best use of my time :)

[@TomEveson99]

Watched it twice because I'm homesick for the streets of london now, great job of capturing the golden light and long shadows. I used to go for walks in central london very early in the morning just to see the sunlight falling on the roofscapes before the traffic started up and there were people on the streets I made a short video of the globe theatre in 2011, couldnt film the play but I caught the build up to the play then sent them an them an email explaining how filming an entire performance meam't that they would realize the vision behind the globe theatre through making plays that would be watched globally as a reality and not just a dream or an idea which is what they do now. Thorouly enjoyed your vid, bit special.

[@WatchedWalker]

Thanks Tom, just had a watch of your video - was great to see inside the Globe Theatre (here's the video for anyone else interested - kzbin.info/www/bejne/r56XeIapmLRsrZI )

[@TomEveson99]

@@WatchedWalker sent my daughter your video she lives in Australia now but she used to live in London. Thanks for makin my Global video available on your channel. I used to live across the road from Regents park and watched your Regents park videos last night. great work

[@paullewis2413]

Same for me, there’s nothing quite like very early morning London, has a magic that later in the day has gone, especially in Summer when parts are overrun with tourists. Must do this again as it’s been some time since my last early morning walk.

[@TomEveson99]

@@paullewis2413 I found a superb collection of base relef carvings on a building in my local high st only I never seen it before because it was so high up the facade just below the roof it was invisibalized from people on the street all its life and its a work of art I did a vid from the street zooming up but its not very good got to do it agen sometime.

[@chrismcleay9127]

Thank you for giving me hope. With love from the USA.

[@nige-g]

It's just lovely to see people enjoying the open air cafe's, and also the beer garden.❤

[@blackcatz1364]

As an Australian who lived in Shad Thames and worked near Borough Market in the early 2000's, this was a lovely one to watch as so much was familiar. Thanks for the walk down memory lane - I love London.

[@MissLilyStar]

Your videos are so fascinating to watch. I absolutely love the binaural audio. Never did I think someone filming their walk around London would be so interesting. I’ve subscribed!

[@marktownsend9333]

I know this walk so well it’s nice to see things getting back to normal 👍👍😊

Can’t wait to visit London again! ❤️

lovely evening walk - nice to see london is getting over that bug and people are starting to behave as they were.

[@GeekStreetTravels]

Awesome walk WW - looks like there is life in London. Good to see as its been too quiet. Glad to see people about!

[@WatchedWalker]

Thanks as always GST! Yes, it's nice to see more people about and it feeling more like it used to again.

Greetings WW and hope you are well!! LOVE the opening shots of this video and have never been this far down The Queens Walk on the South Bank!! Plus love this evening time period and adds another wonderful photographic element to your already great videos. Plus so good to see people out and about enjoying life somewhat again. Looking forward to hopefully another season of festive holiday walks with you. Now onto 125K subscribers by years end (hopefully I will be wrong again and you will be at much more)!! Cheers!!

Thanks as always Robert! I love the evening light in this video, such a great time of day. The year is flying by, it won't be long until I'm out filming those festive videos again!

I love that is walk 🇬🇧❤️

[@sampen4934]

Extremely well captured video, it gives enough time to absorb various things that are going on and observes things around. What i liked most about the London is that it feels so natural, organic development n synergistic, never feels artificial like China or like other developed cities.

[@shubhrajyotipal6538]

Love from India...🇮🇳

London a dream city. when i was childhood that's time did read the Disney story peter pan story... the books was mention of london city and imagine place. that's story are in my mind still. i wish go there.

You and Actionkid should team up in the future. You are two of my favorite walkers. London is a dope city to visit. Can’t wait to go back.

[@WatchedWalker]

Thanks thatford, hopefully a team up will happen at some point!

[@thatford]

Watched Walker yeah I saw a video previously where you said you never been to New York. I don’t believe he’s been to London. Your videos and Geoff Marshall videos were inspiration for me wanting to visit London.

Very calm nice walk.

[@jeshkam]

Years back when I lived in London and had nothing better to do on Saturday and Sunday evenings, I used to just travel around London on the Underground and walk around the stations, some of which where completely abandoned, especially in the City, which was quite eerie. Would you film that sort of thing sometime?

[@WatchedWalker]

Jeshkam, I like the empty stations too, reminds me of An American Werewolf in London - it's on my list to do a walk like that :)

[@jeshkam]

@@WatchedWalker Thank you so much. I'm looking forward to this. ;)

If this was filmed in the past month, then I am astonished at the number of young people that are not wearing masks. Do they think they are immune. But at least I can say I have been for a virtual walk along the Thames.
